Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

COMMENTS
If we relax the restriction on q, where q is different from p, 2 and 3 fail to be members of this sequence.
Primes p = prime(k) for which A076368(k+1) = p or A076368(k+1) is composite. - Robert Israel, Nov 21 2016

EXAMPLE
89 is in the list because there exists no prime q such that 89 + q - 1 = 97.
MAPLE
N:= 10^4: # to get all terms p for which the next prime <= N
P:= select(isprime, [2, seq(i, i=3..N, 2)]):
G:= P[2..-1]-P[1..-2]:
P[select(t -> G[t]=P[t]-1 or not isprime(G[t]+1), [$1..nops(G)])]; # Robert Israel, Nov 21 2016
MATHEMATICA
t = {}; Do[p = Prime[n]; If[FreeQ[Table[k = p + Prime[i] - 1, {i, n - 1}], Prime[n + 1]], AppendTo[t, p]], {n, 335}]; t
